Social Bliss Style Box: February 2014 Review

My Social Bliss Style Box for this month shipped two days ago, and I got it today! You do pay shipping for this box (the box costs $39.95 plus $7.95 shipping), but it comes via USPS Priority Mail, which only takes two or three days to get to me (on the East Coast) from California. So you get what you pay for in terms of shipping speed.I had seen spoiler pictures for this box, but as always I was anxious to see everything in person. And this box did not disappoint! Here's what I got:

It looks like Social Bliss might have a featured designer every month. At least, they did last month (Shield and Honor), and now they do again. This month, the featured designer is Lili Claspe by Stephie Tchamanian. Lili Claspe features customized vintage jewelry using gemstones. The item included in the box was the Galina Bliss ring. This is a statement ring in either gold or silver (I got the gold) containing clusters of crushed galina. This ring is unique and interesting, and I will definitely be wearing it to dress up a more casual outfit.

Next was the Wrapped up in Radiance Scarf. This is a semi-sheer scarf with a chevron pattern that includes Radiant Orchid, the Pantone color of the year for 2014. This is a bright, fun scarf that will be great to wear when the weather gets a little warmer.

The next item was the Inked In Stylus Pen. I wasn't expecting something like this in this box, but I like it! It's a pen with crystals inside it. Apparently it can also double as a stylus for touchscreen devices.

Next was the Fleur de Wallet. This is a zip-around wallet with a detachable wrist strap. It has a purple patent exterior with embossed flowers. There were no tags that I could find to see what the material was, but it seems to be durable and well made. I love this wallet and will certainly use it, maybe as a wristlet when I go out.

Next was the Vinotherapy Face Mask by Naisture. I've never heard of this product or brand before, but it looks interesting. It is a face mask containing ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and resveratrol (which is found in red wine). This seems like more of a sample-sized item since there is only one mask in the packet, but I am curious to try it out.

Finally, there was Go Matte Polish by She in Pink Smudge. I've been wanting to use a matte polish for a while now, but I hadn't gotten around to buying one. This color is also reminiscent of Radiant Orchid and will be fun to wear in the spring and summer.

I am very happy with this box. In fact, I think this is one of my favorite subscription boxes so far. My favorite item this month is the ring, but I know I will be using every item I received, which isn't something I can say for too many boxes! This is the second box by Social Bliss, and I think they are off to a great start and have set the bar pretty high for future boxes!If you are interested in signing up for Social Bliss, click here.
